Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

United KingdomThe property is outdated and in dire need of some refurbishments (wall paper peeling off in room, office blinds in room). The downstairs entrance smells of cigarettes.

United KingdomThe shaving/mirror light in a dark bathroom couldn’t be fixed. No breakfast which we had booked. No restaurant service, we think it’s been a victim of Covid, but we weren’t informed that the booking offers had been changed or offered any discount or compensation.
Good location and polite staff.

United KingdomThe owner was away and there was only one member of staff on site at the time to check in. Because check-in time co-incided with the start of a Six Nations match, it took a while for someone to check me in because he was also manning the bar
Bed was very comfortable, bed and bathroom clean. Excellent location - ease of access to shops and beach. Look forward to staying again in July.

United KingdomThe hotel was soulless, the bar was so bland no wonder few people used it. There seemed no food options available for breakfast. For the price you would have expected a very good breakfast, however we booked for the location (Marriot Swansea was £8 cheaper per night).
Our room was very clean and a good size with a sea view

United KingdomThe hotel is a tired property. The rooms were small and bathroom cramped. Rooms at the back of the property smelt of sewage. There was no breakfast provided, despite being shown on the website. The prices being charged for the rooms are extortionate for what is provided. We were there as part of a wedding party so had booked 8 rooms in total, all of them had issues. The cost per night suggests a premium hotel, it is not, it is more like Fawlty Towers!
The location is perfect, this is the reason the hotel was picked

United KingdomThis is the first time we have been allocated Room 11. It is clean & well equipped until you try to use the bathroom. The handbasin is too small to wash your face or clean your teeth in, added to which a shelf has been fitted over it so you bump your head if you try! Also, the breakfast was one of the highlights of our stay, when we met other guests, shared useful info with them and the friendly staff. This time, we saw no other guests or staff so the previously warm atmosphere has left the place. We will not be staying there again!
We have stayed there for 1 or 2 nights at least three times every year for the last 8 years. The location is good and the breakfast staff remembered us and treated us like friends.

United KingdomThe Bathroom was poorly functioning and needed a plumber to fix it. The sink tap was loose. The large bath with jacuzzi didn’t work and the water was cool, so useless bath. The shower worked ok, but cool water. There was an unpleasant large stain on the chair seat.
There was no breakfast served - we had to go to a nearby cafe. The main room was spacious and had a great view and the bed was comfortable. The room was clean and the heating was put on when we asked.

United KingdomWe stayed in Room 37. The bathroom was 2 steps down from the bedroom but the bathroom door had no handle and was awkward to slide open/closed which allowed no privacy. The door was wooden which would be difficult to clean. This room is only suitable for single occupancy. The shower was small and the shower head held in place with rubber bands. Clothes hanging space was a rail behind the bedside cabinet which had to be moved to reach hanging items or bags on the floor.
The staff were very welcoming on our arrival and friendly and helpful throughout our visit. Although the room was not very big it was was clean and the bed comfortable. The location was excellent and they did contact us prior to arrival to advise of road closures due to a Marathon.

IrelandDingy and run down. Nobody to check you in or out. WiFi absolutely hopeless. No breakfast available. Very noisy on the Saturday night. Chair cushion badly stained (by what!). Nowhere to park. This place really needs upgrading, and the price charged is way over the top for what you get.
The room was large and the location quite good but noisy. The staff were very pleasant and friendly (if you could find anyone).

United KingdomNo breakfast but reviews on the booking website referred to dietary options - very misleading. Needs update in corridors and stairs and a tidy up outside. First impression on arrival is “what have I done ?” The view of the bay is fine when the tide is in at night - other times all you see is mud and rocks. Parking had to be paid for. £100 per night is far too much for this property - needs to be reduced to £75. All in all very disappointing and shall not be returning.
Clean room.
